I personally love up &up brand from target work just as good as huggies my 2 year old has never leaked out of them. and they are cheaper then most. I'm also gonna use them when my other son is born which is any day now.

Don't ever buy "loves". U might as well put a cardboard box on the kid and watch it fail. seriously.. Pampers and huggies all the way!

Luvs don't hold true to their popular commercial, huggies gave my daughter severe diaper rash (many friends had the same issue) and pampers are the best so far. :)

I used only huggies with my first, they were the only ones that he didn't leak through. With my second he only uses pampers. My baby girl now is also only uses pampers. She will be 11 weeks on Wednesday and she is still in newborn diapers. She's itty bitty, and was born 6.15

My daughter was 6lb 11oz at birth and wore newborn diapers for about a month. For the newborn size I prefer huggies because they have a cut out in them for the umbilical cord. I then went to pampers swaddlers for size 1 which fits 8-14lbs and she was in those till about 3 months. Then on to size 2 swaddlers till she was 6 months. She will be 1 on the 26th and is still in size 3 with pampers cruisers. If I buy target or Walmart brand I have to get her size 4. I really hope this helps you!

My first broke out in rash with pampers. We tried huggies and liked them however we switched to walmart brand they are by far cheaper and work just as well as huggies! :) will be using the same with this baby! (Unless i can convince hubby to go with cloth diapers!)

My daughter was born 6'7....but she is a tiny little thing...she is 1month and two days and is still in a newborn! If I were you I would stock up on newborn pampers...cause my daughter has gone through close to 400 diapers!!!....and I LOVE the pampers brand! The ONLY ONES my daughter uses...the ultrasound tech thought my daughter would be 5 pounds at birth....but remember each baby is different :)

Yeah Get newborn, maybe two packs just to start out. My son was nine lbs and wore them only about three weeks  but they go through so many diapers as a newborn. You want to make sure you have the correct size so your not having to make a trip to the store after delivery :-) so babies stay In newborn diapers for a while, just depends on the baby. :-)

Im really only worried about having enough for the first month or so, not really stocking up because im moving about 5 hours away im waiting on my husband to come back from Afghanistan n its gonna be a hassle making everything fit in the car as it is

So I will buy a big box of size one but should I also buy a small pack of newborn? He is estimated to be a 5-6 lb baby due to the fact hes been in the 16th percentile my entire pregnancy

I would go ahead and buy a big box of size one , they have about 126 diapers in them so more than likely you will use all them. And the bigger boxes of other sizes would be okay too, it's really up to you. Walmart let me exchange the diapers even though I'm positive all the diapers were not bought at that particular Walmart, so if you nor you shouldn't have an issue exchanging them. Or you could just put back the money if you are worried about moving them. :-)

Probably. Babies go through A LOT of diapers, especially if they are formula fed.

My mom had to use Luvs with all of her kids because we broke out with any other brand so I will probably use those as well.
